Carli is the director and leading clinical occupational therapist at KidSucceed Therapy.

Before entering the workforce, Carli always had a strong desire to work with children within the health and wellbeing sector. So when the opportunity to complete a degree in Occupational Therapy presented itself it was an obvious choice for her. Carli completed her Bachelor of Honours in Occupational Therapy at Monash University in 2011. After many years of hard study she graduated with her Masters level degree in the area of Sensory Processing and continued her passion through publishing articles based on her research.

Carli’s work experience covers a broad range of settings including: early intervention, special schools, special developmental schools, community-based therapy and private practice. Through her diverse employment history, she has consolidated skills and knowledge in working with a broad number of children from birth to later adolescence with a range of diagnoses and challenges across all developmental and learning areas.

Carli thoroughly enjoys all her work with all kids. Her dedication has led her to travel to America and around Australia to expand her skills, knowledge and expertise. She is continuously updating and expanding her knowledge and expertise to be able to provide evidence based and effective interventions across a wide range of areas including:

• Understanding and Working with Physical Disabilities
